6:03 am
as firearms teams rushed tojoin them. easy, easy. shortly before police chased the man as he climbed on roofs and tried to get into people's gardens. lock your doors, lock your doors! a 14—year—old boy had already been stabbed. he died in hospital. two police officers were also stabbed and needed surgery. two other people had knife wounds, but they are not believed to be life—threatening. one of the guys got stabbed in the neck and he was holding his neck like that and he was like, "i've been stabbed. i've been stabbed." he tried to enter somebody�*s house, i think. and then where i saw, people were like, police were trying to taser him and that's where they got him down. earlier, the bravery of another police officer face to face as the man refused to put down his sword. locked in their homes, otherfootage shows him crouching down in front of people's windows. this is an incident which has
6:04 am
clearly shocked everyone. and over the coming days, you will see a significant police presence in this area. the 36—year—old suspect is believed to have been injured when he allegedly crashed this van at the start of the attack. this door bell footage appears to show the van veering into someone in the top right hand corner. the suspect is now in hospital under arrest. as police prepared to question him, this community is searching for answers as to how a 14—year—old boy lost his life in such a brutal way and how others were injured in such a chilling attack. down here, there is a large police presence. as you had in my report there, police are making it clear that they will keep this large presence here to reassure the public. but they have said that they believe that this was a random
6:05 am
attack, ratherthan believe that this was a random attack, rather than a targeted, rather, sorry, a targeted attack rather, sorry, a targeted attack rather than a random attack. in that sense they believe that the community here is safe. in terms of the 14—year—old boy, he has not been named at this stage and there is not any more information that we can bring you about him. but we know from witnesses that we believe that he was just trying to make his way to school yesterday morning, so that is a fact that will resonate with a lot of parents in this area and people that are watching here today. police have also reiterated that they don't want people to be spreading any images on social media including pictures and video that shows graphic events of what happened here.— shows graphic events of what happened here. shows graphic events of what ha ened here. ., ., ~ ,, happened here. louisa, thank you very much — happened here. louisa, thank you very much indeed _ happened here. louisa, thank you very much indeed for— happened here. louisa, thank you very much indeed for that - happened here. louisa, thank you very much indeed for that update | very much indeed for that update from hainault. sally has the rest of the news this morning including dramatic pictures from the united states overnight. hundreds of new york city police officers have entered

6:07 am
see the groups of police officers still guarding the main block here at columbia university. they went in with some force, climbing up a ladder into the second floor window, dressed in riot gear. dozens of arrests made inside the building that the students occupied a little less than 24 hours ago. and also taking apart the encampment that had become the symbol of dozens of protests that had broken out as a result, the focal point at columbia university but dozens of protests across the rest of the united states. arrests now nationwide running at a thousand in what is a student president —— student protest nationwide. a real headache forjoe biden, he needs the student vote in
6:08 am
places where the election will be won or lost. columbia university said that the protests were creating lawlessness and a threatening environment forjewish students in particular but critics will say that once again here on an american university campus there has been a heavy—handed crackdown on freedom of speech. two men from cumbria have been charged in connection with the felling of the famous sycamore gap tree in northumberland last september. 38—year—old daniel graham and 31—year—old adam carruthers have both also been charged with causing criminal damage to hadrian's wall. our reporter alison freeman has more. it was possibly the most famous tree in the world. it even got a starring role in the hollywood film robin hood, prince of thieves. iam home! but at the end of september last year, it was deliberately felled one
6:09 am
night, causing an international outpouring of shock and dismay. many came to see if it was true. everybody sort of feels very bereft about it, you know? i mean, who would do it, for goodness' sake? i feel... actually, i feel i'm filling up now. northumbria police said they'd charged two men from cumbria in connection with the felling of the tree, as well as causing criminal damage to hadrian's wall. daniel graham, who's 38, and adam carruthers, who's 31, were first arrested in october last year and are due before newcastle magistrates on may the 15th. northumbria police said it recognised the strength of feeling associated with the tree, but it reminded people not to speculate, particularly online, because it could have an impact on the ongoing case. the tree may be gone, but it certainly still holds a place in the memories of many. alison freeman, bbc
6:10 am
news, northumberland. a failed asylum—seeker has become the first to be sent voluntarily from the uk to rwanda. the migrant was given £3000 to help relocate to kigali and was flown out on a commercial flight. it is separate to the forced deportation policy the government announced two years ago. the scottish government will face a vote of no confidence today. the motion was tabled by labour after humza yousaf scrapped the snp's power—sharing deal with the scottish greens last week. the greens called for it to be withdrawn after mr yousaf resigned as first minister and it's not likely to be passed without their support. the australian airline qantas says it is changing a problem which has allowed people to change other people's details on things like
6:11 am
boarding. australian airline qantas says it is investigating a privacy breach on its app that allowed customers to view and amend other people's account details like boarding passes. qanatas says it's fixed the problem but has not commented on the scale of the breach. a final compensation scheme for those affected by the infected blood scandal, could be in place by the end of the year after the government made a key concession in the house of lords. our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us now. in this situation speed is of the essence, isn't it?— essence, isn't it? yes, it absolutely _ essence, isn't it? yes, it absolutely is. _ essence, isn't it? yes, it absolutely is. this - essence, isn't it? yes, it absolutely is. this is - essence, isn't it? yes, it - absolutely is. this is potentially a significant moment because what happened yesterday will have the force of law. it is not a verbal commitment. you mentioned speed, this scandal has been running for decades now. it was way back in the 19705 and 19805 that more than 30,000 nhs patients who were being given blood clotting treatment were given blood clotting treatment were given contaminated blood products, around 3000 are later thought to have died from contracting hiv or hepatitis. there is a public inquiry still ongoing into this scandal. in april last year, the chair of the
6:12 am
inquiry called on the government to set up a full compensation scheme as speedily as possible. and in december last year, some mps frustrated by the fact that that is not yet happening passed a vote requiring the government to administer and run the compensation scheme as speedily as possible. fast forward to yesterday in the house of lords, which was debating a different piece of compensation —— legislation, the labour peers sought to amend it saying that at the point at which it is passed, the government had three months to have the compensation scheme. the government agreed perhaps thinking it might lose the vote. three months until the end of the law. there are some potential wrinkles, we don't know when the law will pass on that could complicate the timeline, especially if parliament is dissolved for a general election. for those desperate for that compensation scheme to be finally set up, this is something.
6:13 am
donald trump has again dismissed his criminal trial in new york as "nonsense", shortly after a judge warned he could face jail time for repeatedly breaching a gagging order. he was fined $9,000 and warned to stop publicly attacking witnesses and jurors. 0ur correspondent david willis reports. shortly after donald trump and his entourage of aides and lawyers arrived for the day's proceedings came word the former president had been found guilty of contempt of court. nine breaches of a gag order designed to prevent him from criticising witnesses, the jury or court staff. he responded by taking aim at one of the few people not affected by the restrictions. thejudge should be recused and he should recuse himself today. it's the most recusable judge, i've been told, recusal abuse. and he should recuse himself today. and maybe he will, maybe he will, maybe he'll do the right thing. but really, more importantly than the recusal, he should terminate the case today. fining donald trump the maximum
6:14 am
penalty of $1,000 for each of the offending social media posts, the judge ordered they be removed and warned the defendant that should he re—offend, he could be sent to jail. donald trump is facing 34 counts of falsifying business records to cover up a so—called hush money payment to the porn star stormy daniels in the run—up to the 2016 presidential election. and among the witnesses on day nine of the trial was her former lawyer, keith davidson. he told the jury he negotiated a $130,000 payment in return for her keeping quiet about an alleged sexual encounter with mr trump. the first american president in history to face a criminal trial, donald trump denies all the charges and contends they're part of an attempt to prevent him from campaigning for a return to the white house. who

galena, also, her personality, she loves to play in boxes. she is pretty shy, and doesn't like to interact with a lot of people but she loves to hide a lot. and she's not much of a meower. and so when she went into that box, and was, you know, taken in the car, we assume that she just froze. it was the best news ever to get that call. i mean, i didn't have a whole lot of hope when galena had been missing for seven days and so finding out that she was still alive was just the best thing in the entire world. it was an absolute miracle that no serious harm came to her. seven days! poor thing. one of those moments you — seven days! poor thing. one of those moments you think, _ seven days! poor thing. one of those

weather as well until later when the cloud will build in the south heralding the arrival of the weather front which will bring in some rain. we still have an unsure breeze coming in along the coastline which is taking back the temperatures —— unsure breeze. we could get 20 in london area, but 17 in stornoway. a weather front comes in across southern areas overnight, pushing north and west and into the west country, and we will see some heavy thundery downpours. at the same time there will be low cloud, mist and murk coming back in from the north sea, pushing inland but we are not anticipating any issues with frost. the overnight lows six to ten. into tomorrow we could start with some thunderstorms, in wales and the south—west, but enough cloud left

6:23 am
making rope swings, tree houses. it's kind of the typical cliche, you know, what it's like to live a lovely life as young boys, you know? jim henderson died while he was helping others. he was delivering food to people in gaza when his convoy was struck by three missiles. losingjimmy in ourfriendship group has actually binded our group together so much more strongly. we will forever be as strong as we are now because ofjimmy leaving us. and i do think about that a lot. ithanked him, you know, for the fact that him going has actually made us so much stronger. jimmy died alongside his colleagues, john chapman and james kirby. their deaths provoked world leaders to demand an investigation. the truth is that when he died, it was... we couldn't even see a way forwards. there was a lot of anger, a huge amount of sadness and loss.
6:24 am
and we sort of went through the process of wanting answers. and that took us down a very dark path. and we felt like we're not going to be able to change what happened tojimmy. and so what we can actually do is look to our local community and look to what we can change positively. go on, jimmy. seen here in black, jim was a talented boxer. his club was a huge part of his life, but it needs a new building and new equipment forfuture generations. the nature of how he passed away was obviously very traumatic for all of us, and this is something that we can actually apply our energy to that makes us feel good, gives us like a sense of purpose. that's the reason why we're doing it. we want to do something that we feel is going to have a positive change as opposed to just continue to feel angry and upset. across the atlantic in washington,

6:28 am
conditions at luton airport's immigrant detention centre have been described as "unacceptable". the prisons watchdog says migrants are being held for too long and that the airport was "unable to cope." the home office says it's addressing some of the recommendations. london has seen an increase in days where the temperature rose above 30 degrees celsius. analysis shows that there were 116 days when the capital experienced these temperatures in the past three decades — more than half of which occurred in the last ten years. the metropolitan police are raising money for a youth group in feltham by scaling the highest peak in south wales. the group went on the hike in the brecon beacons and children travelled from west london to join in. it's the fourth challenge officers have taken on to support rise and thrive, which offers a safe space for young people, mentoring and a diversion from crime. there's definitely been a reduction
6:29 am
in sort of antisocial behaviour because the kids are sort of learning and listening to what darren and the other youth workers are teaching them. but also when we do have problems, the youth club are happy to come out on patrol with colleagues from the neighbourhood team. so they're sort of being able to identify young people who are getting into trouble and just sort of nipping it in the bud. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a severe delays on the district line service on the tubes this morning. now on to the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather misty and murky start for some of us this morning. any mist and fog patches will lift. the cloud we have initially will start to break. so some brighter spells ahead of the cloud, thickening again, some showers to the west of london, heavier spells of rain towards the end of the afternoon. but further east, some sunshine. temperatures there reaching around 20 celsius. 0vernight tonight, we'll see that rain clearing away westwards. behind it, some dry and clear spells,
6:30 am
but then a band of potentially thundery showers will move further north. temperatures between 9 and 11 celsius overnight. now the front that brings those thundery showers through the night will linger into thursday morning. so it's a cloudy start. we run further risk of showers through tomorrow. they could be heavy. you might get a rumble of thunder, but gradually we'll see some brighter spells developing, potentially some sunny spells. and if you get those further east, temperatures, again, a warm 21 celsius. it is quite unsettled towards the end of the week. further spells of rain through the bank holiday weekend. but after a chilly friday, temperatures recover as we head towards bank holiday monday. that's it from me. you can get the very latest on the attack in hainault on our website and bbc news app. i'm back in half an hour. until then i'll pass you back to sally and jon hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. the uk's biggest indoor arena opens its doors in manchester today, following a series of problems and delays.
6:31 am
co—op live has had to postpone its opening twice as it wasn't ready in time. ben has more details — it hasn't been plain sailing, has it, ben? just a couple of weeks ago, we were previewing the imminent opening of this venue. at £365 million, the man behind it says it's the "finest arena built outside north america". the opening has been anything but. gig after gig postponed and the venue manager resigning. good morning. co—op live, with a capacity of 23,500, is not only the biggest indoor arena in britain, but the third largest in europe too. construction started in 2021. it was meant to officially open last week with peter kay's show. but that didn't happen. 0rganisers said it had to be postponed because of concerns over health and safety and technical issues.
6:32 am
this is the free test event featuring rick astley, which was held three days before the planned grand opening. but instead many tickets were cancelled with just hours to go. a spokesman for the venue said they had to cut capacity to 5,000 to enable them "to test the spaces effectively". very frustrated. i was extremely disappointed just 24 hours after they released the tickets. peter kay's gigs were rescheduled to monday and tuesday of this week. but those also had to be postponed — again. commenting on x last friday the comedian said "co—op live still isn't ready. two shows yet again. he did add in an extended statement "your safety is important and i won't compromise that." so what are the hurdles that organisers might face on such a big project?
6:33 am
people have no clue, all the hoops you have to go through with authorities and everything concerning health and safety, but it has to be done nowadays with what's gone down over the years. you have to protect the audience and make sure they're in a safe environment. so if you have to have a delay because of that, that's understandable. i think there will be widespread industry support internationally because we all need great venues, great entertainment, and i think in six months' time people will forgotten about it completely —— in six months' time people will have forgotten about it completely and it will be phenomenal. and so the doors finally open tonight with a show — not by a local hero — but from american rapper a boogie wit da hoodie. the big concerts then come thick and fast for the rest of may — the first two nights of olivia rodrigo's uk tour on friday and saturday, then keane, five nights of take that, followed by elbow, eric clapton,

next week's second leg is at the bernabeu. for england's two stars, it's on to bellingham's turf. joe lynskey, bbc news. now to this. 22 years since ipswich town were last in the premier league. and that picture shows it. they are though on the verge of a return to the big time. they need just one more point for promotion from the championship, after beating coventry 2—1 last night — cameron burgess with the winner. all they need to do is avoid defeat in their last match on saturday and they'll be up. we are watching closely ronnie'0 sullivan at the moment. you often can't take your eyes off him especially when he is going for a record eighth world title. he is level with stuart bingham, fourframes all, in his quarterfinal. he did come from behind to get there but he didn't look his usual happy—go—lucky self.

6:39 am
pallab ghosh has more. it's bread, only better. these are the first batch of nutrition—boosted loaves. the aim is to make them look and taste like the sliced white bread that most people prefer. what i really found about this project is that white bread is not good for you. i was always aware of that, but it's really reinforced it and it makes you realise just how much of the goodness is on the outside of that grain of wheat. we want to know what are the actual minerals present and what are the vitamins and amino acids and so on that are being lost, so that we can formulate a white flour that is enhanced, compared to an existing white flour. the scientists are working with a flour—making firm in gloucestershire. they're making loaves with added cereal, pulses and fibre for the scientists to analyse.
6:40 am
both these loaves are nutritionally enhanced. this one has bits of wheat, such as wheat germ and bran that are found in wholemeal loaves but in smaller quantities. this one has all sorts of different grains, such as chickpeas, green peas and quinoa, all mixed in together. both of them are much better for you, but how do they taste? chris hollister, whose idea it all is, offers me a slice or two. that's gorgeous. and it tastes like white bread as well. that's the idea, yeah. we wanted to have a look at how we could increase the nutritional content of normal white flour by keeping and retaining as much as possible, so that people would get more nutrition from their bread that they eat daily. so tricking people into eating more healthily. effectively, yeah, because most people, they're just not... you know, they're not necessarily that interested. around a fifth of the wheat grain
6:41 am
is thrown away when making flour for white bread. and those are the bits that are better for you. chris thinks that there's a way of putting some of that back without making the bread taste like wholemeal, which a lot of people don't like. currently, white bread flour has to have essential minerals, such as iron and calcium added to it by law. but the scientists say that mixing in natural cereals, peas and beans will be much betterfor you, and they'll collect the data to prove it. if the nutritional quality of that standard bread — that bog standard bread — is improved, their nutrition and their quality of life and their health and wellbeing will improve. nutrition—boosted white bread should be available in the shops in a couple of years. the researchers say it'll be the best thing since...sliced bread. pallab ghosh, bbc news.

and who's tougher, though, do you think, out of both of you, because you both did stunts in this? who do you thinks the toughest one? this one, this one's toughdom. equal toughdom, i think. right? equal toughdom. i would say. you're like... i wouldn't have done that fall you did in the beginning. no. but you're just tougher. you squeezed in a half hour yesterday for when the rest of us were... pilates. yeah, yeah. taking a nap. you were planking. i was planking. what are you doing later? want to go to a beach somewhere? drink a spicy margarita. make some bad decisions. yes. i'm going to be honest. like, there is nothing in that film that i would find as scary as like having to do the song and dance routine at the oscars. like, that to me, it was amazing. that, to me, was like, "i think i'd ratherjump out of a building." yeah. especially when you're performing for blunt here, who's looking at you and just going like... that's what i was like the whole time. the whole time, like, nuh—uh. nope.
6:53 am
you were like, thumbs down. laughter. thumbs down. that kind of stuff. that's all he saw when he looked out, everyone else was enraptured, and i was like, "oh!" not again. no, i thought it was absolutely phenomenal, phenomenal. give it a miss. give it a miss! # i'mjust ken, anywhere else i'd be a ten~#_ but i feel like you've got quite a british sense of humour, is that... completely. you get sarcasm. and a chilean sense of humour. i can't tell if you guys are making fun of me or not. no, no, no! kidding, see, i got you. 0h! see? he's a huge fan of the british office. he is... i mean, you worship at the church of gervais, and i think that that is indicative of... i find ryan endlessly funny, and i probably wouldn't find him funny if he wasn't so into british humour, maybe. yeah. truthfully, yeah. i'll tell that to your other co—stars. yeah, please do. actually, you can broadcast that around. i do not mind them knowing. i'm not the hero, i'm just the double. not today, you're not. the star of the movie...

institutions. given this latest police action, hope for reconciliation seems even further away. a failed asylum—seeker has become the first to be sent voluntarily from the uk to rwanda. the migrant was given £3,000 to help relocate to kigali. it is separate to the forced deportation policy the government announced two years ago. we can now speak to our chief political correspondent henry zeffman. henry, morning to you. just explain to us what's this exactly is? morning, sally. that distinction is so important. this is a rwanda scheme, not the rwanda scheme. it emerged a couple of months ago that alongside the compulsory relocation programme that the government has been trying to get up and running for more than two years now that the government was also pursuing a voluntary relocation is programme in which it would pay people whose asylum applications had failed here
7:10 am
in this country up to £3000 to voluntarily go and build their lives are new in rwanda and the sun newspaper revealed last night that on monday that happened to the first time, an unnamed man who had exhausted all of his asylum options in the uk and whose application had been rejected got on a commercial flight and went to rwanda. clearly there is a very big and important difference which is that he went of his own volition rather than being forced to do so. the government still hopes to get the forced rwanda scheme up and running within nine or ten weeks, taking you to earlyjuly. all of that questions on that legislation still remain. worth noting, the labour party are wondering whether the fact that this flight took place on monday has anything to do with the local elections taking place on england and wales tomorrow. people at the top of government adamant that it does not. nigel farage from the reform party also very critical

saying it will not stop the boats, a very delicate political path for the conservatives on this issue. the scottish government will face a vote of no confidence today. the motion was tabled by labour after humza yousaf scrapped the snp's power—sharing deal with the scottish greens last week. the greens called for it to be withdrawn after mr yousaf resigned as first minister and it's not likely to be passed without their support. a final compensation scheme for those affected by the infected blood scandal could be in place by the end of the year after the government made a key concession in the house of lords. more than 30,000 people were infected with hiv and hepatitis c after being given contaminated blood products in the 19705 and 805. riot police in georgia have fired tear gas and water cannon to disperse crowds protesting against a bill seen by the opposition as targeting media freedoms. demonstrators threw eggs and bottles at police outside the parliament in the capital, tbilisi. a number of people were reportedly injured and detained.

the us secretary of state, antony blinken, will meet with israel's prime minister later, as the world waits for hamas to respond to its latest ceasefire offer. we'rejoined by our middle east correspondent, yolande knell. morning, yolande. what can we expect from antony blinken's visit? he is definitely trying to keep up the pressure for a new ceasefire deal in gaza. what we have got on the table is a 40 day truce, in exchange for something like 33 of the most vulnerable israeli hostages still held by hamas coming home and palestinian prisoners being released from israeli jails. he has been saying the onus is on hamas at the moment to agree to the deal. we are expecting its response potentially ljy expecting its response potentially by the end of the day. on this trip we are also going to be hearing a lot more from the us secretary of state about age, he has already said
7:13 am
that there has been a real and important progress made in recent weeks but a lot more needs to be done. i think we will be hearing when he meets israeli leaders about their concerns about the international criminal court. they are very worried despite the fact that we have had no statement officially from the court that there could be arrest warrants against them in the coming days accusing them in the coming days accusing them of war crimes, and if that happens, mr netanyahu says it will be an outrage of historic proportions.— two men from cumbria have been charged in connection with the felling of the famous sycamore gap tree in northumberland last september. 38—year—old daniel graham and 31—year—old adam carruthers have both also been charged with causing criminal damage to hadrian's wall. our reporter alison freeman has more. it was possibly the most famous tree in the world. it even got a starring role in the hollywood film robin hood, prince of thieves. iam home! whoooo! but at the end of september last
7:14 am
year, it was deliberately felled one night, causing an international outpouring of shock and dismay. many came to see if it was true. everybody sort of feels very bereft about it, you know? i mean, who would do it, for goodness' sake? i feel... actually, i feel i'm filling up now. northumbria police said they'd charged two men from cumbria in connection with the felling of the tree, as well as causing criminal damage to hadrian's wall. daniel graham, who's 38, and adam carruthers, who's 31, were first arrested in october last year and are due before newcastle magistrates on may the 15th. northumbria police said it recognised the strength of feeling associated with the tree, but it reminded people not to speculate, particularly online, because it could have an impact on the ongoing case. the tree may be gone, but it certainly still holds a place in the memories of many. alison freeman, bbc

only like a wasp sting. on herfour acres of land, there are creatures from all over the world. over 300 of them. squawking. that's the parrots! her exotic pet refuge has been part of the family for 47 years, still managed by pam with the help of her son darren and animal manager caroline. they've seen different trends of buying exotic animals over the years, but over the last six months there's been a 30% increase in the number of animals they're now having to take in. i mean, years ago, it was all the cuddlies, the monkeys and the raccoons and coyotes and things like that. then about probably ten years ago it went to reptiles and we got hundreds of reptiles in, and now it's sort of gone back to all sorts now. it's anything that's exotic. i don't think they realise how long they live. this is benny. he's our oldest capuchin. he's about 66 years old, our records show. and the cost of them, i mean, the electric. our electric bill is £5,000 a month.
7:20 am
exotic animals are sometimes bought as status symbols. but the family here say there's also an ease of purchasing, which can lead to spur of the moment decisions, with some people having no idea what they're taking on. so this is george, he's a mississippi alligator. he's been kept in a bathtub by his previous owner. we took him on, he was only about 18 inches long at the time. to have an alligator in the back garden you're going to need a big enclosure like this. and there's loads of health and safety to follow as well with him. there's so much specialist care that they need, specialist diet, specialist veterinary treatment, specialist housing, different lighting depending on the animal, humidity monitoring, temperature monitoring. so there's an awful lot involved with them. and i think status symbols is one reason and sometimes ill informed as well from places that are just trying to make money rather than looking after the welfare of the animal. it costs £100,000 a year to keep this refuge open. but once these animals are under pam's care, they're here for life.

7:29 am
addressing some of the issues. considering the weather lately, you may be suprised to find out that london has actually seen an increase in the number days where temperatures have risen above 30 degrees. in the last three decades, there were 116 days when the capital reached these highs. more than half of those were in the last ten years. the met police are raising money for a youth group in west london by climbing the highest peak in south wales ten times in a day. the officers joined youngsters from feltham to hike the brecon beacons. it's the fourth time officers have taken on a challenge — to support the rise and thrive group — which offers space for young people as well as mentoring. there's definitely been a reduction in sort of antisocial behaviour because the kids are sort of learning and listening to what darren and the other youth workers are teaching them. but also when we do have problems, the youth club are happy to come out on patrol with colleagues
7:30 am
from the neighbourhood team. so they're sort of being able to identify young people who are getting into trouble and just sort of nipping it in the bud. let's take a look at the tubes now. now on to the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather misty and murky start for some of us this morning. any mist and fog patches will lift. the cloud we have initially will start to break. so some brighter spells ahead of the cloud, thickening again, some showers to the west of london, heavier spells of rain towards the end of the afternoon. but further east, some sunshine. temperatures there reaching around 20 celsius. overnight tonight, we'll see that rain clearing away westwards. behind it, some dry and clear spells, but then a band of potentially thundery showers will move further north. temperatures between 9 and ii celsius overnight. now the front that brings those thundery showers through the night will linger into thursday morning. so it's a cloudy start. we run further risk
7:31 am
of showers through tomorrow. they could be heavy. you might get a rumble of thunder, but gradually we'll see some brighter spells developing, potentially some sunny spells. and if you get those further east, temperatures, again, a warm 21 celsius. it is quite unsettled towards the end of the week. further spells of rain through the bank holiday weekend. but after a chilly friday, temperatures recover as we head towards bank holiday monday. the 13 candidates for mayor of london are entering their final day of campaigning before tomorrow's election. you can find out what they're all promising online at bbc.co.uk/london. i'm back in half an hour. hello, this is breakfast with sally nugent and jon kay. yesterday on breakfast, we brought you the first part of a special bbc investigation into the effects of knife crime in england and wales. we heard from the family of mikey roynon, who was just 16 when he was stabbed to death at a party last summer.

in the second part of our series, we hearfrom the neighbours and first responders, who attended the scene where mikey was attacked. a warning you may find some of the details distressing — our west of england correspondent, danjohnson reports. this is the ambulance service. is the patient breathing? 11pm on a summer's evening and a 16—year—old is struggling for his life. it's a house party, please. a birthday party has been upturned by a knife attack. is the patient breathing? no, no. people living nearby are trying to save the boy. it was a scene of, like, carnage, basically. when i got there, mikey was on the floor in the road. we were trying to find the stab wound. we thought it might have been on his leg. there was blood literally everywhere. right off, it was clear that it was life threatening,
7:33 am
it was catastrophic. you're confronted by people who are shocked, distressed. some people had blood on them, just completely shocked by what had gone on. i was trying to say to mikey, you're not on your own. i'm trying to help. we're here, we're trying to help you. whether he'd already passed away, i honestly don't know. i remember saying, "no, he's not dead. let's keep going, let's keep going." knowing in your heart of hearts that probably we're going to be unsuccessful, and... and, um, that was really sad. and you sort of... you don't expect it, necessarily. and when it does happen, it'sjust shocking and grotesque. i mean, from 25m away, i could see that he was very, very pale. he looked like he was unconscious. he looked very unwell, if not critically unwell. mikey roynon had been stabbed in the neck with a zombie knife after a confrontation erupted at the party. it was only when the other ambulance teams arrived,
7:34 am
we were able to get more eyes to have a look and we found the single extensive stab wound right up hidden in his hairline here behind his ear. mikey�*s was definitely one of the worst i've seen — one of the most severe i've seen. it wasjust dreadful. we just looking at his face, and... yeah, and that is unfortunately his face at that point is now what i remember. none of us felt that anything else would change anything for mikey at that point. that's the point when the doctor says, "right, i think we stop." and then it just... it was just silent. everything went silent. and it wasjust... it wasjust eerie. i keep thinking, you know, grief is... it'sjust love, isn't it? it's going to be there forever. and so now on a hillside on the edge of bristol, mikey�*s mum carries the burden of a bereaved family. no mum should have to do this.
7:35 am
i don't want to come up here every day. i want to be at home cooking his tea or shouting at him for having a messy bedroom. they've taken everything from mikey, but also from me. as friends, we feel helpless in the situation. so we've been cooking for the family just to make sure that they don't have to worry about what they're eating. so we gather in kate's kitchen all the time and make their tea for them. this is a support network, but it's also another layer of impact. we now worry even more about our children, don't we? because they're the same age. petrified to let them out the front door. really? yeah, absolutely petrified. and as soon as they might be late home because they're having a good time, we immediately think the worst and the amount of mornings we say, was awful night last night, worrying that something worrying that something
7:36 am
had happened to ours when they're just with their friends having a good time, safe. but we know now that's not always the case. it's petrifying. you can't measure the level of impact it's had. no. it's absolutely immeasurable for all of us — for our families, for our friends, for everybody. it's had a huge impact and it's changed all of our lives and it will do forever now. you feel the grief in every way, like, the whole family are broken, and... there's nothing we can do to put their world right. it's just awful. we feel guilty all the time. you say guilty. you mean because... because i've still got my children. she lost her son... she's only got... she only had mikey, and he's gone. and i've got four. and i can't think about losing one of them four. so how does she ever get over losing her only son? i felt that our response was inadequate because we couldn't save his life, much as we wanted to.
7:37 am
it's funny, isn't it, how it comes up when you start talking about it. i thought it was all buried away, but clearly, it isn't. yeah, it was just really shocking. um, i was a new father at that point, well, still am really. and ijust remember, you know, drawing parallels really and thinking how dreadful it would be if my little boy ended up in that situation. it's been nine months now. it's exhausting because you're constantly on edge. you're constantly, you hear a helicopter and it'sjust... it triggers you. you hearan ambulance, it triggers you. i just... i sort of feel guilty that i couldn't do more. i couldn't do any more. the one thing that — that i keep coming back to is the utter waste and the utter futility. no—one, whoever they are, deserves to die in the street like that. mikey�*s death here underlines the devastation, not just for his family, but also
7:38 am
for people here in this community and beyond as well. and then there are the three young men who did this. i'm not allowed to tell you their names. we don't know a huge amount about them. they may not deserve our sympathy, but they've upturned their own lives and those of their families, too, and their fates are to be decided by a judge when they are sentenced on friday. donjohnson, bbc news in bath. talking about the ongoing and ripple effects of one single knife crime. one moment. so many lies forever changed. really powerful couple of reports. let'sjoinjohn. talking about a dramatic night of champions league football.
7:39 am
we're talking two footballing superstars. with no british teams left in the champions league, taking centre stage here in the studio and on the pitch last night were harry kane of bayern munich and jude bellingham of real madrid. both, in their debut seasons, have been sensational in guiding theirteam to the semi finals. but which one would come out on top last night? joe lynskey was watching. bayern munich against real madrid, or england's record goalscorer against england's newest hope. this tie still set up for one of them to win it. but in munich, madrid showed they can change games with one pass. commentator: vinicius junior running through and scoring. _ toni kroos played it for viniciusjunior — a champions league goalfit for this kind of semi—final. madrid are iii—time champions, bayern have six. commentator: 0h, brilliant! and in five second half minutes, they found hopes of a seventh — a penalty brought the chance for their man who wants it most. this year's finals at wembley
7:40 am
perhaps set up for harry kane — the 43rd goal of his extraordinary season. but, cruelly for him, there were more spot kicks to come. vinicius for 2—2 and a semi—final poised. next week's second leg is at the bernabeu. for england's two stars, it's on to bellingham's turf. joe lynskey, bbc news. this is ipswich town 22 years ago — the last time they were in the premier league. but they will be preparing for a big party. they need just one more point for promotion from the championship, after beating coventry 2—1 last night. it's been quite the turnaround. four years ago they sank to the third tier. if they avoid defeat in their last match at home to huddersfield on saturday, they'll be up.
7:41 am
back in the big time. ronnie o'sullivan is always fascinating to watch — on good days and bad — and yesterday will probably go down as "difficult". he's currently going for a record eighth world snooker title at the crucible. and he couldn't hide his frustration when he missed an easy red in his quarter—final against stuart bingham. he did come from 3—1 down to level that opening session at 4—4, so he's still very much in it — they'll return this evening, it's first to 13, and it's live on bbc2. fans of english cricket will hope bowlerjofra archer can rediscover that terrifying pace he bowls with. despite not playing international cricket for over a year. he's in the squad for england's t20 world cup defence this summer. and worth saying he bowls fast, he bowls really fast, but has been hit with recurring injuries — if he's back to full fitness he could bejust what the side needs. jofra is that bowler that is just so special, you do everything you can to try and get him back playing. we have taken the longer road this time.
7:42 am
as always with jofra, fingers crossed till he is out there playing. you know when you are waiting for something really good to happen, you don't quite believe it till he's there. but he's tracking well at the moment. there will be mixed feelings about the draw for great britain as they try to win the billiejean king cup for the first time in their history. after beating france in a play—off last month to make it to november's finals, britain have been drawn against germany in the first round — that's a tie they should win, but, if they do, they'll face the top seeds canada in the quarterfinals. i guess the route to the top is never easy. you have got to beat the best. thank you. we have had quite a lot of wildlife in the last half—an—hour. we have had a cat,
7:43 am

cakes. but experts are concerned that some of these unique sayings could soon disappear. let's have a look some tv moments showcasing a range of regional phrases that many of you may recognise. yorkshire accent: ay-up, lasses. where's tha' going then? laughter. welsh accent: all right, stace, what's occurring? l i need your advice, i do. go for it. mum says, "have you got tothpaste?" yes, and a flannel. he's got it, now, come on! derry accent: you should be ashamed of yourself. - i know, i'm sorry. it alljust made me a bit nervous. everything makes you nervous, clare, you're a walking cack attack. i can't help that, it's the way god made me. scottish accent: come on, lass. what's more important? glowering at tam cooper or seeing your wee man all right? wow! what would you call it again? a

7:54 am
when people are not from our area, for example, we tend not to use them. when we go home, it is like a baggy old favourite jumper, giving instant comfort. i think actually, when i ask people, what you call being hungry? what do you call a wood louse, which weirdly attracts lots of different regional words, they instantly remember them. i am hopeful we will be hanging on. obviously, some are dying away. the language of collieries, doctors, quite often. those are to be missed. the basic words about childhood, i think we are holding on to them. —— dockers. what words are used for woodlouse monkey peas. roly—poly is.

learning and accent is hard. your muscles are set up to speak the way you speak. i might use me if i was in london, for example, i might use something like la'er. i know this isn't dialects specifically that it isn't dialects specifically that it is how people use language and change pronunciation. when you come from one party to another, i come from one party to another, i come from the north and went to live in london. people would say la'er commit see you la'er. i didn't understand. forthis commit see you la'er. i didn't understand. for this tiny grey island, we have so many accents and so many words. what susie said, dialects are changing and going different. i don't quite know the difference between slang and dialect but people are coming up with all sorts of words. one was talking

8:01 am
immigrant detention centre have been described as "unacceptable". the prisons watchdog says migrants are being held for too long and that the airport was "unable to cope". the home office says it's addressing some of the issues. considering the weather lately, you may be suprised to find out that london has actually seen an increase in the number days where temperatures have risen above 30 degrees. in the last three decades there were 116 days when the capital reached these highs. more than half of those were in the last 10 years. your weather today, quite a few showers will be making their way across the capital. it should clear up by the evening though with highs of 20 degrees, so it's definitely one of those sunglasses and umbrella days! that's it from me for now. we'll have more from the scene in hainault in half an hour, or you can head to the bbc news app for the latest. see you in half an hour.

that officers face to keep londoners safe. our reporter louisa pilbeam has the latest. shouting. this was the extraordinary moment police officers cornered and tasered a man suspected of stabbing five people in a quiet residential area in an east london suburb, as rush hour began and families woke up to take children to school. 22 minutes after first receiving a 999 call, police surrounded the suspect as firearms teams rushed tojoin them. easy, easy. shortly before police chased the man as he climbed on roofs and tried to get into people's gardens. lock your doors, lock your doors! a 14—year—old boy had already been stabbed. he died in hospital. two police officers were also
8:05 am
stabbed and needed surgery. two other people had knife wounds, but they are not believed to be life—threatening. one of the guys got stabbed in the neck and he was holding his neck like that and he was like, "i've been stabbed. i've been stabbed." he tried to enter somebody�*s house, i think. and then where i saw, people were like, police were trying to taser him and that's where they got him down. locked in their homes, otherfootage shows him crouching down in front of people's windows. this is an incident which has clearly shocked everyone. and over the coming days, you will see a significant police presence in this area. the 36—year—old suspect is believed to have been injured when he allegedly crashed this van at the start of the attack. this door bell footage appears to show the van veering into someone in the top right hand corner. the suspect is now in hospital under arrest. as police prepare to question him, this community is searching for answers as to how a 14—year—old boy lost his life in such a brutal
8:06 am
way and how others were injured in such a chilling attack. louisa pilbeam, bbc news. that was all unfolding this time yesterday. what is extraordinary about it is because of all of the dash cam footage and doorbell cameras we have, the pictures that we are able to see what happened, and the police body can, that is extraordinary.— and the police body can, that is extraordina . , , :, extraordinary. this is the moment, the man who _ extraordinary. this is the moment, the man who has _ extraordinary. this is the moment, the man who hasjumped _ extraordinary. this is the moment, the man who hasjumped across i extraordinary. this is the moment, the man who hasjumped across a l the man who has jumped across a garden fence from the right of the screen there, with the yellow hoodie, holding a large sword. he is cornered at this point, one officer is moving in with a taser. and then cornered essentially. as the police swarm in and then more back—up arrives. swarm in and then more back-up arrives. , .., swarm in and then more back-up arrives. , :., :, , ., arrives. they called to him several times to get _ arrives. they called to him several times to get down, _ arrives. they called to him several times to get down, stay _ arrives. they called to him several times to get down, stay down, i arrives. they called to him several| times to get down, stay down, but in the moments before this, they had been shouting to the people who lived in the area to close their windows, close the doors, lie down,

8:09 am
through the window still wearing the keffiyeh, the black—and—white checkered scarf, the symbol of palestinian solidarity. they were driven off down the road there to shouts and cheers from their supporters, a few scuffles along the way, a few more arrests made. and if we point the camera just over here, you can still see the groups of police officers guarding the main block here at columbia university. when they went in, they went in with some force, climbing up a ladder into the second floor window, dressed in riot gear. dozens of arrests made inside the building that the students had occupied a little less than 21: hours ago. and also taking apart the encampment that had become the symbol of dozens of protests that had broken out as a result, the focal point at columbia university but dozens of protests across the rest of the united states. arrests now nationwide running
8:10 am
at more than a thousand in what is the biggest student protest movement for decades. a real headache forjoe biden, he needs the student vote particularly in those critical marginal states where the election this year will be won or lost. columbia university said it had no choice but to act, it said that these protests were creating lawlessness and a threatening environment forjewish students in particular but critics will say that once again here on an american university campus there has been a heavy—handed crackdown on freedom of speech. the us secretary of state antony blinken has arrived in israel for further talks with prime minister benjamin netanyahu, ahead of an anticipated response from hamas to the latest ceasefire offer. america's top diplomat says the united states is determined to see a peace deal struck. mr blinken is also expected to discuss the flow of aid into gaza during his visit.

our chief political correspondent henry zeffman joins us now. henry, these two schemes are not to be confused?— be confused? they are easily confused. — be confused? they are easily confused, sally, _ be confused? they are easily confused, sally, but- be confused? they are easily confused, sally, but that i be confused? they are easily confused, sally, but that is l confused, sally, but that is absolutely right. there are two different things going on here and the person who went to rwanda on monday went to rwanda under a rwanda scheme, not the rwanda scheme, not the forced relocation policy we have been talking about the two years. it turned out a couple of months ago that in parallel with that policy the government has pursued a scheme under which it would pay people who had come to the uk, applying for asylum here, and failed, up to £3000 to go and make their lives in rwanda instead. on monday, the sun newspaper revealed, that happened on the first time, somebody got on a commercialflight of the first time, somebody got on a commercial flight of their own volition on monday and is now making their life in rwanda. that is very different to what the government
8:13 am
hopes will start happening in about ten weeks or so when they hope that you will begin to see a regular rhythm of flights taking off from the uk to rwanda people coming in small boats making the application in rwanda and if successful, living there in rwanda. all of the questions we have been talking about about the legal obstacles to the government scheme and whether they will get the flight in the air, they still apply, we will find out the answers in the coming weeks and that remains a very important question. labour, by the way, questioning whether this flight yesterday is the government trying to get a flight, any flight to rwanda before the local elections taking place tomorrow. people in government adamant that the timing is just a coincidence. adamant that the timing is 'ust a coincidence.i adamant that the timing is 'ust a coincidence. :, ~ , :, , . coincidence. thank you very much, hen . coincidence. thank you very much, henry- we — coincidence. thank you very much, henry- we have — coincidence. thank you very much, henry. we have a _ coincidence. thank you very much, henry. we have a very _ coincidence. thank you very much, henry. we have a very happy i coincidence. thank you very much, i henry. we have a very happy reunion for you now. a family in the us has been reunited with their pet cat
8:14 am
after she was accidentally mailed hundreds of miles away in an amazon box. she was literally posted, bless her! the cat named galena disappeared from her home in utah prompting widespread searches for her on social media. she was rescued by an amazon worker in california nearly a week afterjumping into one of the family's packages undetected. her owner explained how the mistake happened. galena, also, her personality, she loves to play in boxes. she is pretty shy, and doesn't like to interact with a lot of people but she loves to hide a lot. and she's not much of a meower. and so when she went into that box, and was, you know, taken in the car, we assume that she just froze. it was the best news ever to get that call.
8:15 am
i mean, i didn't have a whole lot of hope when galena had been missing for seven days and so finding out that she was still alive was just the best thing in the entire world. it was an absolute miracle that no serious harm came to her. seven days in a parcel! keeping auiet, no seven days in a parcel! keeping quiet, no miele. _ seven days in a parcel! keeping quiet, no miele. i— seven days in a parcel! keeping quiet, no miele. i wish - seven days in a parcel! keeping quiet, no miele. i wish you i seven days in a parcel! keepingl quiet, no miele. i wish you could have seen _ quiet, no miele. i wish you could have seen what _ quiet, no miele. i wish you could have seen what we _ quiet, no miele. i wish you could have seen what we were - quiet, no miele. i wish you could have seen what we were seeing, j quiet, no miele. i wish you could i have seen what we were seeing, we were watching carol watching the cat wasn't that a lovely story? i were watching carol watching the cat wasn't that a lovely story?— wasn't that a lovely story? i when m cat wasn't that a lovely story? i when my cat went _ wasn't that a lovely story? i when my cat went missing _ wasn't that a lovely story? i when my cat went missing for - wasn't that a lovely story? i when my cat went missing for a - wasn't that a lovely story? i when my cat went missing for a week, | wasn't that a lovely story? i when i my cat went missing for a week, he lived on spiders and condensation, and when he came home he was so skinny! it was good to have him back. i know how she feels! anyway, the weather. this morning it is a murky start in central and eastern areas. low cloud, mist and
8:16 am
fog, if you are just heading out, pollen levels are moderate and high across many parts of the country. the remnants of the front yesterday in the west, patchy light rain and drizzle. localised showers, pushing to the east coast but the fog will linger. in western scotland and northern ireland, bright skies and a few showers. the afternoon has a mixture of bright spells, sunny spells, the cloud building in the south and we will start to see some heavier rain arrived. thundery downpours by the time we get to the evening and overnight. temperature wise up to 20 degrees in london in the south—east. as we move through
8:17 am
the south—east. as we move through the evening and overnight, here comes all of the rain pushing north and west, getting into wales and south—west england. some will be heavy and thundery and at the same time we see the low cloud, mist and fog retaining the eastern areas. no frost tonight, overnight lows eight to 11. we start with thunderstorms across the west country and wales tomorrow morning, pulling away but the weather front is ensconced in southern areas so there will be a fair bit of cloud and one or two showers. localised mist and murk fishing back to the east coast lingering in parts but a lot of dry weather. 21 degrees, in the west highlands and into the south—west —— north—west and south—east corners. now, how many of you could confidently resuscitate someone suffering from a cardiac arrest? according to the british heart foundation, each minute that passes without cpr, reduces the chance of survival by up to 10%.

8:31 am
cordoned off today. and anyone living within that police cordon has to give their name to an officer in order to be able to come in and out. we've seen people do that this morning. it's a community in shock. of course, there are officers everywhere in high vis trying to reassure community members about what happened yesterday, 20 just 2a hours ago, in which one of their own from this community, a 14—year—old boy, lost his life. four other people were injured in what appears to be at the moment a seemingly random attack. conditions at luton airport's immigrant detention centre have been described as "unacceptable". the prisons watchdog says migrants are being held for too long and that the airport was "unable to cope". the home office says it's addressing some of the issues. considering the weather lately, you may be suprised to find out that london has actually seen an increase in the number days where temperatures have risen above 50 degrees. in the last three decades, there were 116 days when the capital reached these highs. more than half of those
8:32 am
were in the last ten years. let's take a look at the tubes now. there's a minor delays on the district and northern line. now, onto the weather with kate kinsella. good morning. it's a rather misty and murky start for some of us this morning. any mist and fog patches will lift. the cloud we have initially will start to break. so some brighter spells ahead of the cloud, thickening again, some showers to the west of london, heavier spells of rain towards the end of the afternoon. but further east, some sunshine. temperatures there reaching around 20 celsius. overnight tonight, we'll see that rain clearing away westwards. behind it, some dry and clear spells, but then a band of potentially thundery showers will move further north. temperatures between 9 and 11 celsius overnight. now the front that brings those thundery showers through the night will linger into thursday morning. so it's a cloudy start. we run further risk of showers through tomorrow. they could be heavy. you might get a rumble of thunder, but gradually we'll see some brighter spells developing, potentially some sunny spells.
8:33 am
and if you get those further east, temperatures, again, a warm 21 celsius. it is quite unsettled towards the end of the week. further spells of rain through the bank holiday weekend. but after a chilly friday, temperatures recover as we head towards bank holiday monday. before i go, the 15 candidates for mayor of london are entering their final day of campaigning before tomorrow's election. you can find out what they're all promising online at bbc.co.uk/london. i'm back around 9:15am. bye— bye. morning live follows breakfast on bbc one this morning. let's find out what they have in store with gethin and helen. you are back inside. not as warm

8:36 am
opens its doors in manchester today, following a series of problems and delays. co—op live has had to postpone its opening twice as it wasn't ready in time. ben has more details. just a couple of weeks ago, we were previewing the imminent opening of this venue. at £565 million, the man behind it says it's the "finest arena built outside north america." but it certainly hasn't been the finest start. gig after gig postponed and the venue manager resigning. co—op live, with a capacity of 25,500, is not only the biggest indoor arena in britain, but the third largest in europe too. construction started in 2021. it was meant to officially open last week with a special peter kay show. but that didn't happen. organisers said it had to be postponed because of concerns about health and safety and technical issues. three days before that, there was a test event featuring rick astley with 11,000 fans invited for free.
8:37 am
but many tickets were cancelled just hours beforehand. a venue spokesman said they had to cut that down to 5,000 to enable them "to test the spaces effectively" — but many were left disappointed. very frustrated. made plans to go to the event _ very frustrated. made plans to go to the event and was extremely upset and disappointed by the way it was done _ and disappointed by the way it was done less— and disappointed by the way it was done less than 24 hours after they believed _ done less than 24 hours after they believed the tickets. —— released the tickets — meanwhile, peter kay's gigs were rescheduled to monday and tuesday this week. but those had to be postponed again. on social media the comedian said "co—op live still isn't ready. they're having to reschedule my two shows yet again." but added "your safety is important and i won't compromise that." so what are the hurdles that organisers might face on such a big project? people have no clue of the hoops you

who was that again? peter kay. a boogie wit da hoodie. is it true you have been having elocution lessons on that morning? the childhood friend of a cornish aid worker killed in an israeli drone strike in gaza, hopes to honour him by raising money for the boxing club he loved. james "jimmy" "enderson was among the seven aid workers, who died when their convoy was hit last month. his close friend, harryjames—mills now wants to renovate their old boxing club and name it afterjimmy. he's been talking to our reporter, melanie chiswell. my memories ofjimmy from that age were being in penryn park, making rope swings, tree houses.
8:40 am
it's kind of the typical cliche, you know, what it's like to live a lovely life as young boys, you know? jim henderson died while he was helping others. he was delivering food to people in gaza when his convoy was struck by three missiles. losingjimmy in ourfriendship group has actually binded our group together so much more strongly. we will forever be as strong as we are now because ofjimmy leaving us. and i do think about that a lot. ithanked him, you know, for the fact that him going has actually made us so much stronger. jimmy died alongside his colleagues, john chapman and james kirby. their deaths provoked world leaders to demand an investigation. the truth is that when he died, it was... we couldn't even see a way forwards. there was a lot of anger, a huge amount of sadness and loss.
8:41 am
and we sort of went through the process of wanting answers. and that took us down a very dark path. and we felt like we're not going to be able to change what happened tojimmy. and so what we can actually do is look to our local community and look to what we can change positively. go on, jimmy. seen here in black, jim was a talented boxer. his club was a huge part of his life, but it needs a new building and new equipment forfuture generations. the nature of how he passed away was obviously very traumatic for all of us, and this is something that we can actually apply our energy to that makes us feel good, gives us like a sense of purpose. that's the reason why we're doing it. we want to do something that we feel is going to have a positive change as opposed to just continue to feel angry and upset. across the atlantic in washington, a memorial at the national cathedral is honouring all seven

weeks and months ahead. a field in lincolnshire is looking bloomin' lovely this week, as volunteers have begun harvesting thousands of tulips. the farmer that grows them is only interested in the bulbs, meaning the flowers are going spare. they've been collected and stored ready to take centre stage as this year's spalding flower parade. our reporter, leanne brown, has more. it's been labelled britain's most beautiful crop. this rainbow of colour you can see from the sky consists of more than a million tulips. but these beautiful blooms won't be here for much longer because all this week they're being picked by volunteers for the spalding flower parade. it might seem heartbreaking to see all these tulips having their heads snapped off, but basically the grower is only interested in the bulbs. so the longer the flowers are on the bulb,
8:44 am
then the bulb suffers. so we're actually doing him a favour, really, taking the heads off because then all the nutrients go into the bulb and that's what they sell. i'm nubbing tulips and we just wanted to help. it's such fun and we come with friends and just have a nice day, really. i've picked purple ones and yellow, and these are going on the float. we have to take the stem back to that bit. and then we've pinned them on the floats. it brings lots of people together. when i arrived in england 20 years ago, this flower parade was something wow. and then it stopped and now it's come back. so, for us, it's a big thing to be part of the community. the parade started in the 19505 and ended in 2015, but members of the community fought to bring it back and last year it got a reprieve after a ten—year absence. it went down so well they're doing it again. this year, you're in for a big surprise. last year was big at 48 floats. this year, you've got 60.
8:45 am
a lot more music, more bands, a lot more going on. and you're in for a real spectacular. it's a movie theme this year, so you've got things like wizard of oz, king kong, and we've got chitty chitty bang bang and it goes on. yeah, i can't wait. and today is just the start of the process. after picking, the nextjob will be pinning the flowers to all the floats in the parade. so this blanket of vibrant tulips can be seen by all in the streets of spalding. leanne brown, bbc news. it's a gorgeous? a lovely site in lincolnshire. carol can tell us if those tulips will continue to look so lovely in beautiful sunshine in the days ahead?— so lovely in beautiful sunshine in the days ahead? so lovely in beautiful sunshine in the da sahead? , , , , the days ahead? some sunshine, yes. not all doom —

8:47 am
holding back the temperatures. we could reach 20 in east anglia and the south—east today. this evening and overnight and this is when heavy, thundery downpours get going. they will drift north and west into wales and south—west england. some of those in parts of the south—east for a time. more low cloud, mist and fog coming in from the east drifting in and once more. it will not be cold tonight. six to 11 will be the overnight lows. this is the offending front bringing heavy and thundery downpours. we will have an easterly wind coming in from the north sea. you can see the colours, the amber and the yellow colours. tomorrow will be warm unless you are exposed to the onshore breeze. the low cloud, mist and fog lingering across parts of north—east england and south—east scotland. meanwhile, that thundery storms across parts of wales and the south west will pull

away. we still have the dregs of the front in the south. that will produce a few sharp showers as we go through the course of the afternoon. a lot of dry weather and we are looking at a fair bit of sunshine as well. temperatures responding in the sunshine. we could hit 21 degrees in the highlands, north west england and parts of the southeast. generally, temperatures will be higher away from the north sea coast. on friday, a england, there will be cloud and showers more widespread. some of those could clip scotland. sunnierskies widespread. some of those could clip scotland. sunnier skies in the final and later it could brighten up across the english channel posts. these are the temperatures, coming down a little bit. we are looking at the top temperature of 16, possibly 19 once again in the west highlands. thank you very much indeed.

garden in a way to another little creatures to exist, collect pollen and go about their lives, habitat all the year—round, not tally during the month of may, it will benefit everybody. even if you do not have access to a garden, you can ask the council may be not to be so tidy about the way we keep our gra55 verges and stuff like that. they can become amazing corridors for wildlife. you'll have a part to play. wildlife. you'll have a part to -la . , . ,, wildlife. you'll have a part to play. one thing we perhaps had to embrace his _ play. one thing we perhaps had to embrace his messiness. _ play. one thing we perhaps had to embrace his messiness. everyone| embrace his messiness. everyone wants a neat lawn with straight edges and all of this. how important is it to make messy fashionable? hugely important. we have been conditioned because it was seen as a highly sophisticated thing to

8:54 am
of hollywood's biggest stars and their latest action movie is tipped to be one of this year's blockbusters. the fall guy is based on the 19805 tv series about stunt performers. ryan and emily have been speaking to our culture reporter charlotte gallagher about working together, performing at the oscars and what their kids think of their films. three, two, one. when it comes to hollywood star power, it doesn't get much bigger than this. # shot through the heart...# ryan gosling and emily blunt have teamed up for a new film, the fall guy. i was particularly satisfied by your fight scenes, emily. oh, my god. thank you very much. did you train for it? i'm glad you removed, like, the props because she can turn anything into a deadly weapon. anything can be weaponised. they don't call her stunty blunty for no reason. stu nty blu nty. that is sort of the word on the street now. and who's tougher, though, do you think, out of both of you, because you both did stunts in this? who do you think�*s the toughest one?
8:55 am
this one, this one's toughdom. equal toughdom, i think. right? equal toughdom. i would say. you're like... i wouldn't have done that fall you did in the beginning. no. but you're just tougher. you squeezed in a half hour yesterday for when the rest of us were... pilates. yeah, yeah. taking a nap. you were planking. i was planking. what are you doing later? want to go to a beach somewhere? drink a spicy margarita. make some bad decisions. yes. i'm going to be honest. like, there is nothing in that film that i would find as scary as like having to do the song and dance routine at the oscars. like, that to me, it was amazing. that, to me, was like, "i think i'd ratherjump out of a building." yeah. especially when you're performing for blunt here, who's looking at you and just going like... that's what i was like the whole time. the whole time, like, nuh—uh. nope. you were like, thumbs down. laughter. thumbs down. that kind of stuff. that's all he saw when he looked out, everyone else was enraptured, and i was like, "oh!" not again. no, i thought it was absolutely phenomenal, phenomenal. give it a miss. give it a miss!
8:56 am
# i'mjust ken, anywhere else i'd be a ten#_ but i feel like you've got quite a british sense of humour, is that... completely. you get sarcasm. and a chilean sense of humour. i can't tell if you guys are making fun of me or not. no, no, no! kidding, see, i got you. 0h! see? he's a huge fan of the british office. he is... i mean, you worship at the church of gervais, and i think that that is indicative of... i find ryan endlessly funny, and i probably wouldn't find him funny if he wasn't so into british humour, maybe. yeah. truthfully, yeah. i'll tell that to your other co—stars. yeah, please do. actually, you can broadcast that around. i do not mind them knowing. i'm not the hero, i'm just the double. not today, you're not. the star of the movie... tom, tom, tom, tom rider. ..is missing. we need you to find him. why me? you're a stunt man, for god's sake. no—one's going to notice whether you're here or not. no offence.
8:57 am
i mean, some taken. the stunt performers in this as well. it seems like it's a real love letter to people that haven't maybe got the recognition before, that deserve the recognition because they are the ones being set on fire and jumping out of buildings. absolutely, yeah, no, it's strange for us, i think, especially because we're the ones that they come in and they dress like us and wear wigs that make them look, you know, and then they they do the dangerous things for us, they take the hits, they put themselves in harm's way for us. they play our characters as well. i mean, we're not the only ones that play our characters. they're actors too, same union, and yet they hide their face and disappear into the shadows and everyone sort of pretends like they weren't there. the better they are at theirjob, the more you, you know, they disappear in a way. and it'sjust, it ends now. it ends with this film. we're flipping the script. oscars for stu ntmen? yes, immediately, now, why not before? it's pretty crazy. they risk more than anyone. their work is an art form, and it's designed just as much as make—up or costumes or anything else. you know, it's when you understand what they're risking
8:58 am
personally and physically, when you really get it, it only deepens your appreciation for what they do and what they contribute. we're going to set this man on fire. you're a stunt guy. we need to keep this super profesh. professional is my middle name. you said your middle name was danger. and are your kids are quite critical of your performances, will they say... extremely. they're sort of disinterested. no, but yeah, it'sjust a little bit like, you know... theyjust want us to be their mum and just want him to be their dad. and i think anything... my kids have seen mary poppins once, they've seenjungle cruise once, and that's a one and done thing for them. my kids have seen mary poppins many times. well, my kids were ken mad, so we sort of are rejoiced in by each other�*s children. but then that's fine with me. it's the way it should be. your kid just wants you in your sweat pants at home. held together with duct tape,
8:59 am
you know, that kind of stuff, trying to get them out the door. that's how they prefer to see me. how do you do, boss? really? yeah. charlotte gallagher, bbc news. i have seen mary poppins more than the children of mary poppins. they do not look like they are ever at home with their sweat pants. stay with us, headlines coming up. live from london — this is bbc news. does this is bbc news. are arrested storm at columbia university does are arrested storm at columbia university building, occupied by students demonstrating against the
